Is this correct?

Lol, yes thats pretty much it.
The engines does NOT consume 2 bar of boost, EVER, thats the whole point, the 2 bar of pressure in the manifold represents the air that could NOT be consumed, and has no direct relationship at all to a measurement of how much was consumed.
At least this thread is managing to help you grasp the basics if only because Phil gets it SO badly wrong that it makes it easy to see why he is wrong, even to a relative lay-person
